I didn't explain well enough why I was including some of the text.

This is from the GNU LGPL v2.1:

This is from the GNU LGPL v3:

      <URL:https://www.gnu.org/licenses/lgpl.html>

I showed both of those to show that the requirement has not changed
between versions (so it is sufficient to determine that the text is
derived from either version of the GNU LGPL).
